From Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests by Melbourne researcher Grant Lavac, and myself; correspondence between Grant Lavac and the Office of the Australian Minister for Defence; and other reporting, it can be stated that:

1. "Defence does not have a protocol that covers recording or reporting of UFO sightings." [June 2019.]

2. "Defence does not have a protocol that covers recording or reporting of unidentified aerial phenomena..." [June 2019.]

3. DOD has no internal emails, generated between 1 January 2021 and 16 June 2021, which refer to keywords "Unidentified drone;" "Unidentified aircraft;" "Unidentified object;" or "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena." [July 2021.]

By Keith Basterfield / Australian UAP Researcher

I have been interested in the subject of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) since the 1960's. Over the years I have held a variety of roles in numerous Australian state, national, and international organisations, studying the phenomena. My work has appeared in various state, national and international newsletters, magazine and journals. Between 2003 and 2008 I was involved in a search for Australian government documents relating to UAP with the Adelaide based AURA network. Post 2008 I have continued this work alone, or with Melbourne based researcher, Paul Dean. Here is a link to my cataloguing work. http://www.project1947.com/kbcat/ From 1 July 2016 I have lowered my profile to focus on a limited number of research activities, which include "cold case" reviews; and working on specific projects with Isaac Koi; Paul Dean, and Anthony Clarke.
